4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define moisture content.
Think about what components are involved in this definition.
What is K_oc?
Consider how contaminants behave in different phases.
What is the definition of moisture content?
Focus on the specific components of the definition.
True or False: K_oc helps in determining the partitioning of contaminants.
Recall the significance of this constant in the chapter.
If a chemical with a K_oc value of 3 is added to a soil with a water volume of 500 m^3, and you start with 200 kg of the chemical, how much would be expected to partition into the soil and water?
Use the mass balance and K_oc relationship for contaminants.
Evaluate the environmental impact when 100 kg of a pollutant is released into an area where the moisture content is estimated at 0.25. Determine the total water mass in the soil if the dry mass is 400 kg.
Apply moisture content definitions directly.
